Here are a few quick informational tidbits on how the government shutdown may affect you and your research:

HNRCA is closed

PubMed, Ovid, NIH Reporter, NCBI, the CDC, Agricola and other databases relying on government data are not being updated and are not able to respond to inquiries

DOCLINE is down (no direct ordering of articles from PubMed/NLM)

Data.gov and other non-essential websites are shut down, for accessing data, tryData Citation Index through Web of Knowledge

Many government services are not being maintained or no longer allow access. Resources like PubMed are still running, but not being updated; and if hacked or broken, they may not be fixed in a timely manner. The libraries subscribe to many databases that provide access to the same information, but will be maintained and staffed since they are not government-run. For more on alternative resources to use in order to access government information, see the Tisch Library guide here: http://researchguides.library.tufts.edu/govshutdown
